STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
a 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

ChatCholine O-acetyltransferase; Catalyzes the reversible synthesis of acetylcholine (ACh) from acetyl CoA and choline at cholinergic synapses. (644 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Gpcpd1
Glycerophosphocholine phosphodiesterase GPCPD1; May be involved in the negative regulation of skeletal muscle differentiation, independently of its glycerophosphocholine phosphodiesterase activity.
   
 
 0.922
Slc18a3
Vesicular acetylcholine transporter; Involved in acetylcholine transport into synaptic vesicles. Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Vesicular transporter family.
 
 
  
 0.916
Chkb
Choline/ethanolamine kinase; Has a key role in phospholipid metabolism, and catalyzes the first step of phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis.
 
 
 
 0.914
Phospho1
Phosphoethanolamine/phosphocholine phosphatase 1.
     
 0.912
Chka
Choline kinase alpha; Has a key role in phospholipid biosynthesis and may contribute to tumor cell growth. Catalyzes the first step in phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis. Contributes to phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis. Phosphorylates choline and ethanolamine. Has higher activity with choline (By similarity).
 
 
 
 0.905
Ache
Acetylcholinesterase; Terminates signal transduction at the neuromuscular junction by rapid hydrolysis of the acetylcholine released into the synaptic cleft; Belongs to the type-B carboxylesterase/lipase family.
   
  
 0.859
Slc5a7
High affinity choline transporter 1; Transmembrane transporter that imports choline from the extracellular space to the neuron with high affinity. Choline uptake is the rate-limiting step in acetylcholine synthesis. Sodium ion- and chloride ion-dependent; Belongs to the sodium:solute symporter (SSF) (TC 2.A.21) family.
   
  
 0.759
Th
Tyrosine 3-monooxygenase; Plays an important role in the physiology of adrenergic neurons.
   
  
 0.754
Slc25a20
Mitochondrial carnitine/acylcarnitine carrier protein; Mediates the transport of acylcarnitines of different length across the mitochondrial inner membrane from the cytosol to the mitochondrial matrix for their oxidation by the mitochondrial fatty acid-oxidation pathway.
   
 
 0.714
Gad1
Glutamate decarboxylase 1; Catalyzes the production of GABA; Belongs to the group II decarboxylase family.
   
  
 0.692
